1 star? I heard it was good -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Apr 12, 16:25 13
- We were 1-star bombing it due to the DRM controversy. It still never recovered months later. -- (link) - Qale Apr 12, 16:27 12
  - Well, no offense but that's absolutly stupid, it's like a movie reviewer giving films 1 star because the theater bans bringing in your own snacks - The Calico Cat Coalition Apr 12, 16:29 10
    - No, the reviews were to inform potiential buyers that the product they were interested in contained something that EA did not disclose on the box. -- nm - Qale Apr 12, 16:31 9
      - My Star Wars VHS tapes didn't disclose that they had copy protection on them, yet they did...I was more pissed Greedo shot first - The Calico Cat Coalition Apr 12, 16:34 8
        
        Not just any copy protection, some of the most agressive and penalizing copy protection in the history of the industry. - Qale Apr 12, 16:35 7
        
        "not that it mattered..." as someone that creates intellectual property, I'm amazed you think fighting piracy and copyright infringment is a bad thing -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Apr 12, 16:39 6
        
        I'm going to sell you a copy of my book for 13 dollars and if you read it more than 3 times you're going to have to call me and ask my permission to - Qale Apr 12, 16:42 5
        
        I'm going to buy your new book, scan it in and post the pages online...cause I bought it - The Calico Cat Coalition Apr 12, 16:50 4
        
        I think Qale's point was that EA (the makers of Spore) didn't disclose their DRM prior to purchase. - ReluctantCynic Apr 12, 16:56
        
        I've uninstalled/installed Diablo 2 dozens of times. Wouldn't be able to do that with Spore. - Qale Apr 12, 16:54 2
        
        Not to mention the fact that you're just plain wrong about the idea that gamers don't want to pay for their games. Of course they do. They love games! - Qale Apr 12, 16:55 1
        
        All I wanted was a Pepsi and she wouldn't give me one! -- nm - lileve Apr 12, 17:00
  - We won a victory apparently as Sims 3 will not feature such draconian DRM. -- (link) - Qale Apr 12, 16:28
